Aaahh!!  Like Helene, I thought of it as a sort of loose dressa bit like
..oh! gosh!  what was his name??   There was a famous singer (male) some years
ago who used to wear an afghan...I'm starting to think I'm catching husband's 
Alzheimer's!!

for you, or is your cousin starting a new wedding dress fashion

Now that is a different idea - especially as I don't know what I'm going to
wear yet!!

Here in Canada and the US too, I think, an afghan is a throw, blanket or
cover made (often, but not exclusively) in granny-squares.

The one I am making has a pattern of variegated squares surrounded by plain
navy squares. It is finished except for crocheting 2-3 rows round the edge
and finishing it off with a scalloped edge.

Hi All,

The singers name was Demis Russos (? spelling) who also nearly did not make
it from a Hijacking of a ship in the Mediterranean Sea some years ago.

On the Lace front, I have not done any for a while but hope to get back to
my 4 1/2 piece for an Altar cloth I started at Christmas.

I did one of Eeva Liisa's pictures (The Crucifixion) last year for my
father's 80th birthday - it will be on the walls of the Foyer at State
Parliament House from 22nd August for 3 weeks as part of the Lace Guild's
commemoration of 25 years of operation.

Thanks Mary - I knew someone on Arachne would know!!

You've mentioned the exhibition at Parliament House - I've got a circular
piece
of Flanders (which is actually in a frame encircling a photo of another
lacemaker!) and The Olney Handkerchief going on display in the same
exhibition.
